People are saying words. The words have implications for Annisa so she needs to concentrate on them but she can't. 

Well, eventually either people will kill her or they won't? And if they don't she'll - do the thing she was meaning to do - what was that - ....go....to....class??

"If they knew, why would - "

"Was she the Dominus' kid or something?"

The enclavers seem as confused as she is on this point so it's probably safe to mention???

Oh thank goodness someone else said it first. "I know, right, it just seems insane of them."

Annisa... still seems to be panicking? She may not have put together that it's safe now if she hasn't had much practice thinking under stress.

"Annisa? Did she say anything when you talked to her that might explain why Toronto sent her if they knew she was planning something like this?"

Why would Malak TALK to her, does she look like someone who can successfully turn mouth-sounds into implications? - hopefully she does! She didn't successfully turn the mouth-sounds into implications, though, and has no idea what exactly Malak said. Time to bluff. "Has anyone asked Edmund Pevensie? He talked to her for a while." 

"I saw him at orientation yesterday but I think that was before he talked to her."

She caught some of those words. "There was also another Londoner who, uh, dragged Edmund off when he seemed to be getting upset - I don't know his name, though -"

"Well someone could go track them down maybe? But I guess if she didn't tell you she probably didn't tell him either? Obviously Toronto knows what Toronto was thinking bringing a suicidal person in but I don't know if they'd have told anyone else." is she getting through or is Annisa still in shock? There are only so many times she squeeze "Toronto knows she was suicidal" into a conversation before it gets weird and noticeable.

Landon and Larisa exchange looks.

He sighs again. “Guess I’d better go check if London, er, needs anything. You’ll figure out your schedule.”

Malak seems to think she's being helpful so Annisa will just roll with it. "...and probably 'why did you let her come' is, uh, a touchy subject right now, for Toronto."

"Maybe they didn't know until she gave them back all her stuff, but - they still should have done something, right?"

Is that the story we're going with, that she gave Toronto back all her stuff. You'd think that would - fall apart once Toronto complains that, in fact, her stuff is missing - well, the mana storage and power-sharer weren't in there - "...I mean, what can you do. Tie her to her bed?"

"Maybe they thought they had talked her out of it but she turned out to be lying."

" - OK, that's fair, maybe they couldn't figure anything out... drug her and put her to bed and get her in the morning after curfew? But that's just deferring the problem one day."

Larisa shakes her head with a brief eye-roll, and switches to Latin to address the seniors. She keeps her voice low but not quite so low that the freshman can’t pick it up. 

[I need help getting my homework and shop assignment covered this week. Seems I’m back on duty keeping mals off my little brother all night while I make sure he doesn’t fucking walk into the void too.] She ducks her head. [Landon says no more than a week, so, hopefully…]

Marcy has good hearing and solid Latin knowledge and is eavesdropping before she made a conscious decision about it. She tries to keep the shock off her face for the second time in half an hour. All night?!

she's on duty doing what? Malak must have just misheard, Latin's not her best language.

Annisa doesn't speak Latin at all and is very focused on not personally incriminating herself, which seems to be going - well, somehow? But now there's new gossip. And she needs to know what it is without admitting she doesn't know what it is.

"Uh," she says, "have I been - misinformed about a bunch of things about how the Scholomance works? Like - it's possible, my brothers didn't make it out and my parents were nearly forty years ago -"

It makes sense, that if they have to guard him it has to be 24/7, but--Boston tells its kids, any one is to die for any two. You treat your life as exactly as valuable as each squadmate's life, you don't throw good life after bad. But she said back on duty, so she's done it before--conclusion: Larisa is serious business and for some reason rational or otherwise they are extremely committed to keeping Vanya alive.

"Sorry, what do you think you were misinformed about?" She was definitely distracted by wondering what Toronto was thinking and not by eavesdropping on the next table.

Raleigh isn’t fluent enough in Latin to actually follow a conversation in real time; he catches a little bit but is mostly so confused. 

He gives Annisa a sympathetic look but does not, in fact, have any answers for her.

"Well, for one thing, that you can't walk into the void. And secondly -" Glance over at the other table. 

Oh dear. Well she shouldn't blame Larisa for not talking quietly enough, she must be mega freaked out coming and going right now. Still, better not admit to eavesdropping. "Yeah, I heard if you walk into the void you come back out with brain damage. Maybe she--set up some mechanism to shove herself?"

Larisa is explaining her schedule trying to find out who shares her classes, and then, still in Latin, asks if Boston could spare any help with sophomore math homework and daytime babysitting, [since I won’t be good for much this week] she adds with a ceilingward glower. 

"Oh, okay, that's what I was told too. Yeah, maybe." Maybe it's easier with a void floor but volunteering that would mean reminding people Annisa's been to her room.
